hello >_<

imported a 91 gtr a few months ago and its great no dramas at all with it.

replaced all the essintials, filters and oil ect

my question is, after reading alot of threads ect, if i should change oil pump?

since sarly R32's have an oil pump drive that is about half the width of the later gtrs

i looked around and i think a N1 oil pump is best option since car is stock and have no plans to mod it, does engine have to come out to replace oil pump ??

car has only 143xxxkms and motul 300v oil

thanks for any input

do it with the engine in b4 its too late. its not too hard. i strongly advise u get a stronger pump than the n1 with the short oil drive tho. go nitto or some billet gears.

Given the stated kms I wouldnt be spending too much money on the motor.

Just be aware the oil pump drive in the car is not as strong as a later model. So I wouldnt go doing a heap of 8000rpm clutch dump starts or bashing the rev limiter continuously.

Have a good look at the harmonic balancer - make sure it is one piece. A failure there will result in an oil pump failure. It will be 20 years old so the rubber in them will have seen better days.

In anycase treat it like it is - a 20 year old motor.

To do that is both engine and crankshaft out. Might as well do it when it has a planned or unplanned complete rebuild.

In my opinion, the crank collar itself (the tolerances between it and the short oil drive on the crankshaft) and how the collar is applied is more important than the pump itself.

If you are going to do an engine out, you may as well get a R33 crankshaft for the long oil drive.

      There are fixes for this. In industry we use compressed air for everything. It is frequently wet, and many things cannot tolerate it. So there are various forms of driers available that you can install. The simplest option for something like this would be a dessicant drier. Much cheaper to replace some silica gel than actuator cylinders.

      That's a solid update mate, well done at WA FOS. You may already know this, but the actuators on the paddle shift are a service item and are sadly not that reliable. As I understand it they collect water from the compressor (condensation) which then rusts the bores/pistons in the actuators. A mate of mine had no end of trouble with them in one if his circuit cars, apparently it's a 'known issue'. Buy a couple of spares at great expense to ensure you never have any problems with the ones you've got! Any clues about what the new WTAC rules might be? While faster cars are cool the Pro class arms race has got to the point where you wouldn't even bother entering without a $1m budget and even then I don't think you'd win.

      Question about R34 GTT A/T Solenoids

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      https://nissan.epc-data.com/skyline/er34/3945-rb25det/trans/317/31940N/ The pictures of the part you're talking about is clearly not just one solenoid. You can see another picture of it here: https://www.alltranz.com.au/shop/drivetrain/automatic-transmission/RE5R01A/product/9305/ The 4 speed automatic in the GTT is Nissan corporate stuff. You can search up similar jobs done on a Frontier or Pathfinder with a RE4R01B to get an idea for what the internals are going to look like and the procedure like this:
